RWARNING!
CAUTION
NOTE
Personal death, serious injury or an explo­sion may occur.
Personal injury, fire hazard or electric shock may occur.
Equipment damage may occur.
If disregarded, inconvenience only. No risk of personal injury, fire or electric shock.

PRECAUTIONS

R DANGER! NEVER short the terminals of the battery pack. R WARNING! NEVER hold the transceiver so that the antenna
is very close to, or touching exposed parts of the body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting. The transceiver will perform best if the microphone is 5 to 10 cm away from the lips and the transceiver is vertical.
R WARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver with a headset
or other audio accessories at high volume levels.
CAUTION: NEVER use non-Icom battery packs/chargers, to pre-
vent the loss of the transceiver’s good performance and warranty.
CAUTION: MAKE SURE the flexible antenna and battery pack
are securely attached to the transceiver, and that the antenna and battery pack are dry before attachment. Exposing the inside of the transceiver to water will result in serious damage to the transceiver.
DO NOT push [PTT] when not actually intending to transmit. DO NOT use or place the transceiver in direct sunlight or in areas
with temperatures below –25°C or above +55°C.
DO NOT modify the transceiver. The transceiver warranty does
not cover any problems caused by unauthorized modification.
KEEP the transceiver away from heavy rain, and never immerse
it in the water. The transceiver meets IP54* requirements for dust­protection and splash resistance. However, once the transceiver has been dropped, dust-protection and splash resistance cannot be guaranteed because of possible damage to the transceiver’s case or the waterproof seal.
* Only when the battery pack/case and jack cover are attached.
MAKE SURE to turn the transceiver power OFF before connect-
ing the supplied/optional equipment.
